Well now you know that was the cause!
BTW For the future, you can zoom in, select the object, click “edit points”, and see that there are two paths:
If you are patient enough, you can even use Easel to select a point, and delete it. Generally, Easel will automatically select the next node on the path, so keep pressing delete and you can probably delete the extra path without having to re-import.
Update - I just did that - took 30 seconds!
Now there is just one path for Easel to follow!
